Rixile Kruger Lodge
About
Our haven in the Greater Kruger
Rixile (pronounced Rishileh), is the local Tsongan word for sunrise .
Located on a 1 hectare stand within the original boundary of the Sabi Sands Game Reserve and within a five minute drive from the main entrance of the world famous Kruger National Park, Rixile Kruger Lodge will give you a self-catering bush experience like no other.
The lodge has been built around and under spectacular knob-thorn trees resulting in the lodge it being completely immersed in the environment.
The property has been fenced off from the neighbouring Big 5 reserves. However, the sounds of lions and hyenas often reverberate through the night air.
The neighbouring Protea Hotel provides additional dining opportunities should you not feel like cooking for yourself.
